[G] [D]
[G] [A] [G] [A] [F#m]
[B] [D]
[Em] [A] You know people always ask me, they say, Bobby why do you always talk [F#m] before you sing?
[B] You know like I notice in most of your songs you always have [D] something to say [Em] people
[A] Talk usually I think you should have [F#m] something to say or you shouldn't talk just to be [B] talkable
I feel that [D] anytime I get something to say I'm gonna [A] say it
Because maybe it might help you on your merry [F#m] way
[A] Like I'm an [B] entertainer, I like to show business.
I like to speak for [A] all people that do show business.
I like people that understand
They look at us different, but there's no difference.
We [D] need the same thing
that [B] you need.
It's [D] simple like
[A] Just say if you were away from home
you know what I [D] mean and
[B] You make home or you try, are you making an attempt to [Em] make home
Where [A] it was, [D] you know what I mean?
Where it is
[B] It's like [A] a few days ago.
I was in Chicago
after the show had
[F#m]
Previously seen this young lady sitting [B] backstage.
She was
Seem like she had a whole [A] lot of time on her hands
I don't know
So after the show [F#m] I was a [D] little lone in and I didn't want to go back to the hotel by [B] myself
And I had been feeling her vibe all through the whole
[Em] Night, so I said hey, [A] baby.
What are you doing after the show?
She said I ain't [D] doing nothing
I [F#m] said well dig, I'm at the Holiday [B] Inn at room 234, why don't you stop by and have a drink?
[Em] She said you don't want to buy me no drink, you can buy me a drink [A] right here
She said you just want to get me up in your room
[D] You know and so many times, this is sad to [B] tell the truth, it makes me feel so bad
You know I mean [Em] because like I've [A] always been the kind of person if that was the case I would tell you yes
I want you in [D] my room
And only reason you would [B] be hanging around is because you would want to be there anyway
Or waiting [A] on an opportunity if that was the case I mean
People [F#m] got a lot to start doing is
[B] Don't be jabbing yourself, you can't fool [A] yourself
You know I'm just gonna if I want water, I'm gonna ask [A#m] for water, I'm [A] thirsty
You know [B] what I mean, but the whole thing and all of this is just [Em] that
You [A] know I'm gonna be gone tomorrow.
I mean even if I wanted to stay my job won't permit me to
[F#m]
I mean it gets real technical, it gets down [B] in the conduit, I hate this
You know [Em]
it's [A] all about money
[D] Behind the scenes
But [B] with me it's all about feeling
[Em] I [A] don't want to get you involved.
I don't want to mess up your life
If you got something going, like I [D] can't keep a man, it's cool to have a man for a man to find
Ain't [B] nothing wrong with that
Well like say [Em] don't get hung up on me
[A] cuz tomorrow
I [D] might be gone on down
[B] It's [Em]
[A] cool if you can handle it
[D]
[B] If you got a good man remember one thing
[G] [A] [F#m]
[B] [Em]
[A] [F#m]
[B] [Em]
[A] [Em]
[F#m] [Em] [A]
[B] [Em] [A]
[F#m] Oh
When your lights go
[B] So
[G] why chase [D] me?
[A] And then your man, you know that you should be [D] Oh
[G] I
[A] Can't help [G] we can't help what we feel [F#m] inside
[Em] Wanna let it [A] out
[Em] [F#m]
[Em] [F#m] [G] [F#m]
[G] [A] [Em] [B] [Em]
[A] I
[F#m] Miss telling you like it is
[B] She [Em] always beats me 16 [A] so why you [F#m] can't look away
[B] [Em]
[A] [F#m]
[B] [G]
But don't get me wrong
[A] I fall in [F#m] love
like [B] any other man do
But [Em]
[A] I gotta keep moving from place to place and ever [F#m] harder.
I might just wanna be with [B] you
[A] [B] I [Em]
have to get it [A] where I can
[F#m] Can't you see I'm like
[B] [F#m] [Bm] [B] [Em]
